The space station’s new robotic arm arrived at the station in July last year. However European Robotic Arm (ERA) had to wait a long time under thermal blankets in space until activated. Until Thursday, April 28.
International Space StationOn Thursday, April 28, the new electronic arm of the facility was activated for the first time. Russian cosmonauts Oleg Artemyev and Denis Matveev outside the ISS to activate the European Robotic Arm (ERA) 7 hours 42 minutes they passed.
NASA’s new Moon rocket failed: Tests fail!
NASA Moon rocket tests, which had been going on for a while, were temporarily withdrawn with the decision of NASA. Here are the details!
The robotic arm started working for the first time!
NASAshared images of cosmonauts working to activate the robotic arm before the first trials. It was not easy for ERA to reach this stage. Approximately 30 years ago introduced electronic arm, occurring in the last 20 years due to various glitches could not be sent to the ISS somehow.
European Space Agency (ESA) engineers finally began testing the robot arm in space. The new robotic arm is approximately 11 meters long and 630 kilograms have weight. The electronic arm offers a high degree of maneuverability thanks to its seven joints.
ERAwill be used primarily for installing, lifting and transporting loads and large components. The space station currently has two operational signatures, signed by Canada and Japan. robotic arm there is more. However, ERA ISSIt stands out as the first branch positioned outside the Russian division of . In this way, maintenance and renovation works outside the space station will be facilitated.
of ERA full capacity operation A total of five studies will be carried out. Last week’s first spacewalk Panel installation of the robot arm was made together with With the work done yesterday, the robotic arm was activated for the first time. Third spacewalk May is indicated for.
